“Emily, and her family, did a wonderful job watching Roscoe. He was well-cared for, active in the yard. Pictures of our pup were sent regularly. It was a.wonderful place for our pup.”
“We had the most amazing experience with Corinna! ! From the very first meeting, my dog connected with her instantly — which says everything. She has such a calm, warm energy, and you can truly tell she loves what she does. Her home is incredibly welcoming and comfortable for pets — clean, cozy, and thoughtfully set up so they feel safe and relaxed. I had complete peace of mind knowing my dog was not only cared for, but genuinely loved while I was away. Budders made herself at home, instantly. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional pet care! Thank you Corinna! XO Budders”
“Heather was incredible!! Stanley stayed in her home for 23 days and he had the best time! We got frequent photo updates of him getting treated with so much love and care, it gave us great peace of mind while we travelled. I can't recommend boarding with Heather enough!”
“Ashley and her husband were amazing. We drove to her home beforehand and she gave us a tour of her home. She kept me up to date with pictures of my pup through his stay and I could tell he was very well taken care of. We will definitely be hiring Ashley for all our pupsitting needs. Highly recommend her!”
“I highly recommend this couple. Emilie and Michael cared for our puppy while we were away and they did an amazing job. Good natured couple. Also their dog Lila is a gentle giant. She got along very well with our puppy. We will definitely use their services again. Five Stars.”
“Marissa was absolutely fantastic! From the very beginning, she was communicative, thoughtful, and clearly caring. She checked in regularly and sent the sweetest photos and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was obvious she truly loved and cared for Kona, and that means everything to me. Even better, it was clear that Kona loved her right back. There’s nothing more reassuring than knowing your dog feels safe and happy while you’re away. I’m honestly just sad she doesn’t live closer because we would book her every single time without hesitation. I can’t recommend Marissa enough!”
“Nyjeah W. Took good care of my Schnoodle Dog Hosanna and my cat Shylynn she was very responsive with updates, very reliable. I would recommend her if you need someone to watch your loving pets she's the best.”
“Gracy loves it here. She gets excited coming down the lane and runs straight for the house like it was her own. We used the pick up option this time and watched on our house cams as our dog ran straight to Sherrys vehicle and jumped right in. It's a relief to know she has no hesitation about spending time here!”

About: I have grown up with both cats and dogs since an early age. I’ve cared for my own pets and those of friends and family. I work from home Monday through Friday, so I’m able to be with your fur babies all day. Weekends are for fun and time outside walking and socializing. I live in an apartment with a fair amount of green space and a paved pond area for daily walks. I’m also conveniently located next to a dog park as well! I have two sweet kitties to keep your babies company throughout the day too.
“We couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch our dog, Vector, while we were on vacation! She did such an amazing job, she sent us lots of photos and updates so we always knew how he was doing, which gave us total peace of mind. It was clear that she gave him so much love and attention while we were away. We came home to a very happy dog, and we’re so grateful for the care she gave him. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch their pets!”
“I left my dogs for the first time over Christmas. My very excitable, stage-one clinger (GSD) was calm and happy when I picked her up which indicates that she was feeling very relaxed during her stay. It was a great experience. I highly recommend Jake and his family.”
“Carol was great with our dogs! She was very attentive and accommodating for our dogs specific needs. Was very reliable and always prompt with responding. We will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”
“Anna-Lena is the person you can absolutely feel safe and comfortable having your best friend stay with her! She was incredibly helpful with watching over my dog by having great communication, greeting the dogs and keeping me up to date with pictures and little notes on the stay! I know my dog enjoyed herself and I was able to enjoy myself knowing my dog was with someone that takes safety, security, and also fun into staying with her! She will always be my first choice whenever help is needed again!”
“Thanos seemed like he really enjoyed his stay with Olivia and family. I truly appreciate her accommodating for his last minute stay. She communicated well and sent lots of updates and pictures. Thanos came back to us with a smile and new friends. Definitely recommend!”
“Mary is literally the best pup sitter. She takes such care of our pup like he is her own. You can tell her heart belongs to the dogs she sits for by how she takes care of them. You won't be sorry for choosing Mary.”
About: I've taken care of dogs since the ripe age of 7 with basic care of water/food in bowl and every 2-4hrs of potty. Whether it was friends or family.

With consistent of litter changes, basic necessities and cuddles! I am free majority of the summer before college. Tuesday's will not be free. But for majority of the week, I'm available as early as 10:00Am till late nights I have a fenced yard for your dog to run around in. I have one female lab and one male Chihuahua that are friendly and can interact with other dogs. (Also have one female cat!) My home is very much spacious, if your dog needs to be crated as well!

“I have used Emily a few times and she is simply amazing! I can leave for the day and know that my big fur baby is well taken care of and makes my day away so much easier. I highly recommend her to anyone. She takes great care of my guy and sends pics on her visits. I can not thank her enough.”
“Tia is a very reliable person sitter. She made sure my kitties were well taken care of while I was away. I’m for sure asking for her help again whenever I am out of town. Thank you so much!”
“Does a great job keeping my ferrets' space clean for them and keeping up with meds for my cats and ferrets. Is very punctual and I know my pets will get taken care of on schedule when she is booked, which really helps with the stress of being away from my fuzzy guys.”
About: I have grown up with cats all my life, fed strays and befriended almost every cat that was said to 'not like people'. I have experience with special needs cats; blind, deaf, tripod, epileptic (my 5 year old boy, Pinball in my pfp), and a few others. With that cones experience with physical therapy, medications (except injections. I have been lucky to avoid having to learn injections), diet restrictions, movement restrictions etc. Between my own household as well as friends and family I have loved and cared for hundreds of cats in my life and would love your kitty to be one of them! ♡
About: I have worked with pups and kittys since I was little, I have done puppy training all the way to taking care of senior pets. I have had much practice over the years with all of my own furry family members and now to having a few solid clients I service on a regular basis before even joining Rover. So I love taking care of folks furry family members including my own Doberman and my sisters cat while she's gone away at college. However I work for the government Tuesday - Saturday 10:30 a.m.-7p.m. so I can be there during the mornings and I can take care of them as soon as I get off work in the evenings for feedings, potty breaks, walks, etc. Unfortunately, I more than likely will not be able to do midday potty breaks so if you're someone who works from home and let's them out frequently it probably will not work out. But if they're used to being in during the day already from work schedules then it should be a perfect fit! I take care of my Doberman pup through trainings with positive reinforcement via toys and treats. I feed him every morning and evening, taking him on walks out in the woods and letting him run wild in our big back yard.
“Juliet was absolutely WONDERFUL with my dog, Lucy! She took such great care of her, including administering medication carefully and responsibly, which gave me real peace of mind. Juliet also kept me updated with frequent messages and photos, so I always knew Lucy was happy and in good hands. She truly went above and beyond, and it’s clear she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful sitter!”
“Great sitter for our Rusty. Aimee goes above what is needed. It's obvious that Aimee has a true love for animals. We are so thankful that we finally found someone so trustworthy and perfect for our Rusty.”
About: I’ve cared for my own two cats, Jolene and Soup for over five years and have been around friends’ and family’s cats for more than eight. Over the years, I’ve learned how to meet each cat’s unique personality and needs with patience and understanding. I have experience with nail trimming, brushing, enrichment and playtime, and administering medication when needed. I also take care of litter box maintenance and keeping cat areas clean and comfortable. One of my own cats is on the shy side, so I’m very comfortable working with skittish or nervous cats and giving them the gentle patience they need to feel safe. I’m confident in reading feline body language and building trust over time. I’m open to caring for cats of all ages and temperaments (though I have a bit less hands-on experience with very young kittens under 4 months). My goal is to make every cat feel secure, cared for, and loved!
About: Hello friends! My name is Taylor and my husbands name is Colton. We love animals and being active and decided to try out this app to help other pet parents while earning some extra money!

I am working part time and my husband and I are trying to navigate my health issues so we are definitely a team! We will mostly be working together unless I am unavailable. I will always do my utmost to keep your pets loved and safe. When walking, I try to be very mindful of the places we go to make sure there’s no danger to their paws. Willing to follow all instructions to the best of our ability.
About: I’ve taken care of pets from craziness to laziness, big or small, I love em all! I’m excellent at rounding them up for baths, playing with them, going on walks or to dog parks to make friends, and most importantly, keeping them safe! If your pal needs a smile, I’m your gal! I’m currently working part time so I will be available 6am-3pm, Monday - Friday to welcome you and your pal into a fun, safe, and caring environment! If you need to leave me a list of do’s and dont’s pertaining to you and your pals needs, I am adamant on adapting to understand their boundaries, reading their emotions, and finding what they will/wont enjoy.

About: I've had cats my whole life (22 years), so I've had my fair share of cleaning litter boxes, treats, play time, brushing, feeding, etc. I have 3 cats right now and 2 are on medicine (pill and insulin) so I also feel comfortable being able to administer medication to your cat! I love seeing different personalities and colorings in cats and Hi! I’m a dependable and patient pet sitter with a special soft spot for cats having grown up with them! I understand that every cat has their own personality — some are playful and social, while others prefer quiet company and their personal space. I take the time to make pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for at their own pace. I’m experienced with daily feeding routines, litter box cleaning, playtime, administering basic medications if needed, and giving plenty of attention (or space!) depending on what your cat prefers. 2 out of 3 of my personal cats is on medicine (pill and insulin) so I am no stranger to administering medicine. I also know how important consistency and a calm environment are for cats, especially while their owners are away. I’ll make sure you stay updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your cat is happy and well cared for. I will treat every pet like they’re my own and make their time away from you as stress-free as possible as I know I would want the same for my furry babies! I’d love to meet you and your cat!
“Took care of older cat and young cat who are still working things out. I felt so much better leaving them in Breanne's care. She is knowledgeable and attentive. And goes above and beyond.”
About: I have experience house/dog sitting. In the past year, I've watched and taken care of three large dogs, a Boxer, and two Labradors, many times. For about two weeks or more depending on the owner's schedule. The boxer has some health issues so I also have some experience with giving medication. I've taken care of two Great Danes who I would classify as loving adorable couch potatoes. I also own two small dogs. My first dog was a Maltese she lived till she was ten but the last year of her life she also had some health issues. I currently have a dog who is also a Maltese Bichon Frise mix who just turned eleven. He is energetic so I'm a very active person and can keep up with your pups too. I understand the importance of giving your pup all the love and attention they need to have a happy life. I will do my very best to provide that for your animals too! I work full time at a car dealership up in the office. I am in the office by 7:00 am and I am typically off by 3:00 pm. I can do late in the evening walks or around when I get off. For drop ins\check ins I could come early in the morning for one and later in the evening for the other on a weekday. As long as it isn't end of month or mid month Fridays I can be off by 1pm. Weekend I am off so I'm more fixable with what I can fit in. I offer drop-in visits and dog walks. During visits, I provide feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, companionship, and any routine care requested by the owner. During walks, I ensure pets get safe exercise and attention while following their normal routine. I always prioritize safety, comfort, and clear communication with pet owners.

“We had a good first experience with Emilie as Poppy’s sitter. Poppy seemed to do well during her stay, and we appreciated receiving photo updates while we were away. Communication was smooth throughout, and we didn’t have any complaints. We would be more than comfortable booking with Emilie again in the future.”

“Tiffany was great! We were traveling through Iowa and needed a place to leave Tommy for the afternoon so we could take a riverboat sightseeing tour. Due to poor planning on my part we had to find someone just a few days before our trip, but Tiffany responded to my request very quickly and was able to take him on short notice. She was so kind, and Tommy warmed up to her quickly. We really appreciated having a great place to take him for the afternoon!”
About: I provide attentive and loving care to pets of all sizes, from small lap dogs to active breeds, as well as bunnies, cats and birds. As I work from home, your pet will receive consistent attention throughout the day, regular walks, playtime, and plenty of companionship. I take time to understand their needs so they feel secure and relaxed. Every pet in my care is treated as if they were my own. With my work from home environment I am able to deal with pets all times during the week. I do travel some weeks, in which I will not take on any pets. I am flexible on schedules. In the spring I will note I coach, and may be gone for 2-3 hours maximum on some nights if there is an overnight pet. This scheduling information will of be provided ahead of time to ensure you know exactly how your pet will be cared for. As I work from home your pet will be watched all day. Whether they choose to join me or relax elsewhere in the house is up to their preference. I do not have a kennel and am okay with pets being able to roam. I also want to break up my day so they will get walks every 2-4 hours if they would like. I also have a fenced yard that I can see from my office if they are wanting to spend more time outside. Personally I’ll probably be outside with them :)
“Darcie really helped us out, accepting our last-minute booking for our Giant Schnauzer puppy, Iris, without hesitation! Iris undoubtedly had a great time, with access to lots of sunshine and outside play in the large fenced-in yard - just what she needs. We will definitely reach out to Darcie in the future!”
“Sherry was kind enough to watch our pup on Thanksgiving day so we could spend the day with my husband’s grandma at her assisted living center, which meant so much… thank you! Both her and her husband were incredibly kind and took great care of Geno for us <3”
About: I’ve never met a dog that doesn’t like me. I donate a bag of treats each stay from my dog’s social media sponsor. We take a walk every single day. I am a teacher so I am out of the house from 7:45am - 4:00 pm Monday-Friday. I have some flexibility to leave early if need be. During lunch break, I use my Furbo camera to talk to my dog and launch a treat for him. I usually take my dog for a walk as soon as I get home from work. Weekends, I am typically home most the day. I have a ranch style single-family home that has a doggy door to a full turf and fully fenced back yard. I have the sweetest Golden Retriever that loves having other doggos come over. Warning: your pet will get lots of love and may not want to leave.
About: I have 3 pets of my own and no children. This gives me flexibility and freedom to accommodate customer needs. I have 2 senior pets and 1 that’s a bit of a wild child. I have raised the 2 older ones their whole life. I workout everyday and being able to incorporate others in that is great. I enjoy the outdoors and staying healthy. I’m big on structure and routine. I love and care for my pets beyond anything. The pets in my house are spoiled and have all natural treats and dentals daily. Pets are allowed to be on the couch and can have free range in the 7’ privacy fence.

About: I’ve been pet-sitting for years, mostly with large dogs and a few cats ranging through all ages, though I’m new to using Rover! I love connecting with animals and tend to make friends with every pet I meet. I also have a mini poodle of my own, so I understand how important it is to know your pet is in caring hands. Pet-sitting is something I genuinely enjoy, and I treat every animal like family. I am on summer break home from college. So my days are almost completely free. I work Thursday mornings at a restaurant, but that’s it. My days are already filled with driving from LeClaire all the way to Davenport visiting friends and family or running errands. Fitting in a visit to your pet would be my priority and easily done. My Own dog is yard trained and extremely friendly (she doesn’t bite, she’s yard trained, She doesn’t have accidents in the house, She’s very submissive and friendly to other dogs, and rarely even barks). I spent a lot of my time playing with my dog, taking her on walks and I would do the same for any other animal. besides getting a dog it’s activity in, I also love cuddles and giving pets to the dogs and cats.

About: I have had cats, dogs, rabbits, mice, rats, fish, hermit crabs, tarantulas and many other types of pets of my own (cats and dogs my whole life) as well as cared for friends and family's pets since I was a little kid. I also volunteered at many local animal shelters in my late teens. I also have experience with different types of special needs animals; mostly cats in that aspect. (Paralyzed, deaf, blind, epileptic, diabetic and tri-pod) My daily and weekly schedule changes with my regular work schedule and my kids school schedule, but I am typically available during day time hours on weekdays, most likely at least one available night time drop-in available and can make myself available on Saturdays, if need be. Your pet will be more comfortable in an familiar environment such as their own home, so I would prefer to see them in their own home. I ask you leave a note somewhere prominent (i.e. kitchen table or counter) with quick point reminders of food/water bowl locations, food locations, treats, and any special reminders such as medications w/ times. I will take time to get to know your pet, play with them if they like or pets, loves snuggles... It's really all about what your pet wants/needs from me! I will also have my 17 year old daughter and/or my 12 year old daughter along to help care for your pet(s), if that's OK with you. Between the three of us we can run your whole zoo if you'd like!! We can do walkies for pets that need a little extra excersize. Shopping trips to pet-friendly local areas/shops/parks if wanted/permissible!

About: I’ve had many different pets in my life- fish, cats, hamsters, geckos; and dogs of friends and family. I am a natural caregiver and treat every animal like it’s my own.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for various pets, including my own two dogs—a Boxer and a Pit Bull. I played a key role in training them, ensuring they were well-behaved and happy. Additionally, I've taken care of pets for my parents' friends and looked after a friend's dog during her late-night clinicals in college. My diverse experience and dedication to each pet's well-being set me apart, ensuring your furry friend receives top-notch care and attention. As a full-time college student with a flexible schedule, I can easily fit pet care into my daily or weekly routine. I'm available to work whenever needed or requested, ensuring your pets get the attention they deserve. I genuinely love working with dogs and have a natural ability to connect with them. My calm and patient demeanor helps me handle pets effectively, even when they don’t listen right away. With my own dogs, we’ve successfully trained them while maintaining patience and understanding. When caring for other dogs, I follow the owner's instructions carefully and handle any issues with a caring and attentive approach, ensuring your pets feel safe and loved. I understand as a dog owner myself that pets are also a member of the family and they need about the same care and attention as a human.
About: Hi! I’ve been around dogs my whole life and had one of my own growing up. I’m experienced with walks, playtime, bathing, and general care, and I love spending time getting to know each dog’s unique personality. While i’ve worked most with smaller dogs, I’m comfortable and open to caring for dogs of all sizes and breeds. I bring a gentle, caring approach to make sure your pup feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Currently I am working part time, my schedule varies but usually I am working 2nd shift in the beginning of the week and working 1st shift during the weekends. I am more than happy to discuss dates and times and work around my typical schedule to meet your needs of pet care to the best of my abilities! Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and boundaries so they always feel secure in my care. Whether i’m in your home or out on a walk, I make sure your pet is safe, supervised, and happy at all times. I treat every home with respect and care, keeping things clean, tidy, and just the way you left them. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pets are loved and cared for like family.
About: I always had dogs in the house growing up. I treat them like my own kids, and I will do the same for yours! I have a wide variety of experience with dogs of different sizes, energy levels, and behaviors. I'm always looking out for their needs and making sure they are comfortable and happy. We are home at all hours of the day so availability is very flexible! We love to be active and can't wait to play with your pup! I want to give busy owners the comfort and security I would want if a stranger was watching my dog. I will be in touch frequently with photos and updates while caring for your dog.
About: I have had multiple dogs ranging from black labs to Saint Bernards! I have done dog walking here and there for over ten years. I am also a mom to an almost two year old (human) and I am very responsible. I’m currently not working and I am a student. Due to scheduling with my child’s other parent I am available every other weekend and Tuesday-Wed. Besides time with my child’s and class, I am free to care for your pet! I am very responsible with animals and professional in other peoples homes. I have house sat, cared for pets, and babysat without any issues within the home. I am happy to provide a safe and fun environment for your pet in your home.
About: I’ve been around many dogs since I was little. Even viscous ones. But no type of dog scares me. Having a cane corso for about 4-5 years got me to be aware of any type of pets. Being around cats dosent worry me. Just as long as I pay attention to signs on what to and not to do. I work full time with kids and I love pet sitting for one of my friends. But usually after work I love to be around lovely pets. I will walk your dog personally. To be honest, letting a dog out in a yard doesn’t seem like they have much freedom. Taking them on an adventure is the way to do it so they have options. Treat them the way you would want to be treated is my motto.

When I do drop ins I have taken them on walks, picked up after them and fed them. I absolutely love working with all animals! I am known to have great communication skills, I am compassionate , and I am responsible. I pride myself in those traits and look forward to building a relationship with you and your family member! I do have a full time job working with adults with intellectual disabilities. Mon-Fri I do work from 730am-4pm. I am still available during the weekends and can also do house sitting during the days that I work! I will follow their daily routine and make them as comfortable as possible while you are away.

About: My boyfriend and I have always had animals in our lives. Growing up he lived on a farm with dogs, cats, goats, pigs etc. and I have had dogs and cats my whole life. We currently have 2 beautiful Great Danes, a bunch of rabbits, outside kitties, and 3 chinchillas! Our dogs love people, small animals, and would love a bigger dog to run around with. We would love to cuddle with your fur babies, go for walks, or just play in the fenced yard! With summer coming up we know that it’s going to be vacation time, you deserve to be able to enjoy and relax on vacation while knowing your animals are well taken care of. Me and my boyfriend work mornings and get lunch breaks half way through, so we’d be able to check on your animals even while working and we can be with them all afternoon. On Wednesdays and Thursdays we are both off so they’d get us all day! We have a 2 story house with lots of room for them to lay around and have their own space if needed. We also have a large backyard that is fenced off already for our dogs.
About: *NOW OFFERING DISCOUNTED RATES!* *I am currently on hiatus from house sitting! I will offer that service again soon!* After a brief break due to adjusting to a new city, I’m back to doing what I love: caring for your furry family members! With 50+ 5-star reviews and years of experience, I’m here to offer dependable, loving care again. I've had pets of my own my entire life and have cared for pets of friends, family, and neighbors for years! I love being around animals and have 3 babies of my own. I'll love your best friend as much as I love my own! I am reliable, punctual, and energetic and always willing to do what I can to help out! I have an anxious, aggressive, and arthritic Chihuahua of my own, so I have experience with more "neurotic" pets as well as experience with medication. One of my cats is 13 years old, so I also have experience with senior care (as well as cat medication, too!). I also have experience with guinea pigs, rats, rabbits, and reptiles! I just moved to the Galesburg area and am currently unemployed, so have wide availability to care for your pets! If I am house sitting, I can typically spend overnight and the majority of the day there! *Note: I am currently on hiatus from house sitting services! I currently do not offer house sitting/boarding in my own home, as my 3 pets aren't comfortable with new animals in their environment. Eventually, I hope to be able to set up a system where I can provide that service! I do have a playpen and door fences that I use for my own dog, so could potentially provide temporary boarding if the circumstance is right! When I come into a home for sitting, I am always acknowledging that I am not only in another person's space but the pet's space as well. I do everything I can to be respectful and aware of boundaries. Following routines to keep the pet comfortable is essential in building the bond!

“I left my dogs for the first time over Christmas. My very excitable, stage-one clinger (GSD) was calm and happy when I picked her up which indicates that she was feeling very relaxed during her stay. It was a great experience. I highly recommend Jake and his family.”
“Anna-Lena is the person you can absolutely feel safe and comfortable having your best friend stay with her! She was incredibly helpful with watching over my dog by having great communication, greeting the dogs and keeping me up to date with pictures and little notes on the stay! I know my dog enjoyed herself and I was able to enjoy myself knowing my dog was with someone that takes safety, security, and also fun into staying with her! She will always be my first choice whenever help is needed again!”
“Thanos seemed like he really enjoyed his stay with Olivia and family. I truly appreciate her accommodating for his last minute stay. She communicated well and sent lots of updates and pictures. Thanos came back to us with a smile and new friends. Definitely recommend!”
“Mary is literally the best pup sitter. She takes such care of our pup like he is her own. You can tell her heart belongs to the dogs she sits for by how she takes care of them. You won't be sorry for choosing Mary.”
